## Abstract Kinetic and spectroscopic analyses were performed to gain information about the mechanism of atom‐transfer radical reactions catalyzed by the complexes [RuCl~2~Cp\*(PPh~3~)] and [RuClCp\*(PPh~3~)~2~] (Cp\*=pentamethylcyclopentadienyl), in the presence and in the absence of the reducing

✦ Synopsis
Ru-vinylidene complexes, Cl 2 Ru{ C C(H) t But}(PCy 3 )(L) (L=PCy 3 or N-heterocyclic carbenes) reveal themselves as a versatile catalyst for the atom transfer radical addition (ATRA) of polyhalogenated alkanes to olefins, such as methylmethacrylate, styrene and 1-octene. Furthermore, these systems are excellent catalysts for the nucleophilic addition of carboxylic acids to terminal alkynes and yielded exclusively alk-1-en-2-yl esters. These complexes can also be transformed to their cationic counterparts by treating the neutral complexes with AgBF 4 and their catalytic potential in ATRA and vinylation reaction are investigated.

Enol and vinyl esters were successfully synthesized by the use of an iridium complex as a catalyst. The reaction of carboxylic acid with terminal alkynes in the presence of catalytic amounts of [Ir(cod)Cl] 2 and Na 2 CO 3 gave the corresponding 1-alkenyl esters. The addition of carboxylic acids to a
